Experience the Extraordinary
at the Japanese American National Museum

Whether yours is a corporate, community, or personal event, the spectacular Pavilion and the National Museum’s landmark Historic Building offer a dramatic backdrop for a memorable, truly extraordinary experience.

Proceeds from event fees help support the National Museum’s exhibitions and programming.

We invite you to the Japanese American National Museum.

The Japanese American National Museum is a striking venue located in the historic district of the Little Tokyo section in Downtown Los Angeles, close to the Los Angeles Convention Center and hotels.

The Pavilion blends traditional Japanese influences with contemporary American design, resulting in a gracious, elegant and inviting setting for intimate receptions or grand celebrations.
